ABSTRACT:
A wet electrophotographic printer includes a developing chamber communicating with an inlet of a first nip between a developing roller and a deposit roller to supply a liquid developer into the first nip therebetween, a developer storing chamber communicating with an inlet of a second nip between the developing roller and a metering roller to withdraw the liquid developer of a low density generated at the second nip during a development, and preventing the liquid developer of the low density from being supplied to the first nip, and a developer supply unit disposed below a partition to supply the liquid developer from the developer storing chamber into the developing chamber. The liquid developer of the low density generated at the second nip is not directly supplied to the first nip, but is supplied after being withdrawn to the developer storing chamber and mixed therein.
